Specific Illness

The authors' stated aim is to produce a practical guidebook on rehabilitation for nurses. The majority of the material presented deals with adults who were "normal" prior to a specific illness or accident. Emphasis is given to the importance of consideration of the person as a whole, his social and emotional needs as well as those of his illness, be it acute or chronic, beginning at the time of hospitalization. The multidisciplined approach with the doctor as the co-ordinator but integrating psychologists, social workers, therapists, teachers, nurses and others, is discussed and illustrated by case examples. This approach is deemed necessary to help many individuals regain a place in society after acute or chronic illness.

Cyclical Process

This chapter discusses how school social workers can apply evidence-based practice to help meet the academic, social, and emotional needs of all children. Evidence-based practice broadly refers to two different approaches: infusing research and data use into school social work and applying empirically supported interventions in practice. The chapter details how school social workers can find and use effective evidence-based interventions. The process of implementing evidence-based interventions includes a cyclical process of assessing students’ needs, selecting the interventions, and monitoring progress by collecting data. Examples of interventions at tiers 1, 2, and 3 are presented, along with case examples that illustrate how school social workers have been successful at implementing these interventions. The chapter concludes with a discussion of the application of evidence-based practice as it relates to contemporary challenges with the COVID-19 pandemic and diversity, inclusion, and equity concerns in educational contexts.

PurposeIn the context of social media (SM) use, self-disclosure (SD) behaviour meets users' social and emotional needs, but it is also accompanied by risks that can harm users. This paper aims to identify the factors that influence users' SD behaviour on SM in Indonesia, using a comparative analysis based on age groups.Design/methodology/approachA survey was conducted on 2,210 respondents who were active SM users in Indonesia. Data were processed and analysed using covariance-based structural equation modelling with AMOS 24.0 software.FindingsResults indicate that, in the overall age group data, factors such as use of information (UI), trust, privacy control (PC), interactivity, perceived benefits (PB) and perceived risks (PR) influence users' SD behaviour. This research also found differences in the characteristics of SD behaviour between age groups.Originality/valueFindings from this study can help SM service providers to evaluate the credibility and reliability of their platforms to encourage user retention.

There are indications that more alcoholics are being placed in nursing homes than ever before. To determine in what ways these patients differ from others going to nursing homes, all alcoholics (72) placed from hospital to nursing homes were studied prior to placement and followed 6 months in 35 homes. Seventy-one nonalco-holics placed during the same period were randomly selected for comparison. Hospital disability ratings from physicians, evaluations from social workers, and diagnostic data from records indicated no significant differences in levels of disability or impairment. Alcoholics were less likely to be currently married and had less income. Although they were younger, they had a significantly higher number of diagnoses than other nursing home patients (P< .01); however, with the exception of cirrhosis and brain syndrome, they had fewer serious illnesses such as cancer and diabetes. Outcome after 6 months showed 28 percent left the nursing home, 45 percent were still in the home, 10 percent were hospitalized, and 16 percent had expired. These outcomes were not significantly different from other nursing home patients. Results indicate alcoholics are as much in need of nursing home services as other patients, even though they differ along social and specific illness patterns *

This chapter discusses how France emerged both as a safe haven on the continent between the wars and as a maternal haven with Paris its undisputed capital. It discusses the demographic angst and pronatalist zeal that gripped French decision makers in the early Third Republic, which encouraged population-minded state officials and benevolent bourgeoises of private charities to join forces for the sake of the future of France. It also explains how public assistance was fleshed out by scores of private charitable organizations that were run by middle-class Frenchwomen who had emerged over the course of the nineteenth century. The chapter mentions social workers of welfarist organizations that provided French and foreign mothers financial, social, and emotional assistance with the tasks of childbearing, child-rearing, and household management. The chapter also describes public and private assistance networks that forged a wide-ranging maternalist and familialist welfare world in France.
